I’m heavily into Game Boy collecting. I just checked their online prices. They might be the cheapest I’ve seen, in general. For example Pokémon Blue is lower than the common price I’ve seen online (especially considering usual shipping and fees), but not low enough people will buy them up and re-sell them.

No promises it’ll stay that way, but they’re very competitive for now.
45 dollars for pokemon blue is a fucking ripoff.
I don’t care if its the cheapest of the rip offs, its still a ripoff.
its a 30 year old goddamn game ffs. I’d consider it over priced at 10 bucks, especially considering how many were sold and out there.

It also states guaranteed working so that’s pretty cool

But are they guaranteed cleaned? I don’t want nobody’s dust being breathed in by my family.

Probably not. I’ve gotten some smudgy ones from them in the past. And also non working carts. But maybe this time it will be better?
